Meet Tasmine – a young trainee at Huntlee Academy.
Initially in the Return & Earn team, Tasmine has been part of the Landscaping crew for several months now. In that time she has worked on more than 90 residential gardens.
A typical day for Tasmine includes building garden beds, planting, laying turf, weeding and mulching. And her favourite part of the job:
“Turfing – because you see an instant result. It brings a yard to life!”
Landscaping is a far cry from Tasmine’s previous job in a take away shop. She is hoping that the traineeship will give her the skills and experience to get a foot in the door as a driver in the mining industry or possibly an opportunity in spray painting in the future.
